I thought the news story was late, but definitely worth running. In fact, Pitchfork might have been the first non-Japanese CD vendor site to run anything on this - I think everyone else was scared by the amount of speculation required to fill out the details.

No, I don't. I hardly even use this email address. I think I got it for ebay.

"the amount of speculation required to fill out the details."

you mean by people on ILX and the Boredoms list?

...of which I am a contributor. In fact, I'm the one who found the title, copy-paste boy.

so is there any truth to the rumor that the new cd is gonna be eye on turntables with 3 drummers?

― Felonious Drunk (Felcher), Tuesday, 17 August 2004 16:15 (nineteen years ago) link

are you serious or goofing

"The live stuff is very trancey, less variation than, say, VCN. No guitars, obviously, just Eye (synthesizer, turntable, very little singing) and 3 drummers. However, the tales about Vooredoms recording (underwater drums?) have me pretty clueless as to how this record will sound.

am i misunderstanding something?

― Felonious Drunk (Felcher), Tuesday, 17 August 2004 16:35 (nineteen years ago) link

V/Boredoms lineup has been like this for like 4 years so something like that is to be expected!

you like prog.

― cºzen (Cozen), Wednesday, 18 August 2004 21:06 (nineteen years ago) link

This review was actually a rerun from earlier this year - you've been one of them all along. (and you better believe I'm writing about Magma when their next full-length Ka Anteria comes out)

― dleone (dleone), Wednesday, 18 August 2004 21:22 (nineteen years ago) link

It is next to impossible to find Magma stuff retail :(

oh shit, i just found ATTAKH for $10, and a bunch of other cheap stuff at my local good shop!

they are having a 20% off sale

the thing is, given the kind of stuff you usually post about, I'm not even sure you'd like Magma that much. They don't actually sound that similar to Ruins or whatever

― dleone (dleone), Thursday, 19 August 2004 14:34 (nineteen years ago) link

I have some EP / single with "Ekath" on it. or something. I love it

Apple II Forever mp3

Remember how we started
Not so long ago
We dreamed of giving everyone
A personal way to grow.
Our dream became reality
And now we're making....
.... History!

Take imagination, and let it lead the way
To a new world of discovery
Setting light, every day
Bringing smiles to children's faces
Opening doors to brand new places

Chorus Apple II Forever!
Making life better and better!
Apple II Forever and ever
Bringing the rainbow to you!
Apple II!
Forever! (Forever!)

Oooo-oooh yeah
And now the world keeps changing
And we'll be changing too
Reaching out with new ideas
And bringing them all to you!
Our future keeps on growing and growing
Our colours keep on showing and glowing

Chorus Apple II Forever!
Making life better and better!
Apple II Forever and ever
Bringing the rainbow to you!
Apple II!
Forever! (Forever!)

Apple II!
Apple II!

My new band is called Laser Lazer Laser. We only play in lefty community gardens with their own health plans. Here is our bio:

"Since The Beatles, any rock band that doesn't write its own material could be considered somehow unworthy of the title. The current era's pathological lust for "genuineness" spelled doom for the golden age of the professional songwriter, the semi-anonymous tin-pan-alley dweller who banged out ditties on cheap pianos for the stars of his day. Rock snobs have to see ‚written and performed by‚creds in the liner notes or the magic was just so much fake-book sleight-of-hand.

One result of this sea change is that a lot of the great rock records of the past 30 years are essentially uncoverable. They were barfed up from the collective unconscious of the bands that wrote and made them famous, and as such, are all but unusable by others. That barfing has produced some of the greatest art in history.

You could find bios of James Brown, Duke Ellington, Led Zeppelin, and many others among the candy wrappers and broken picks on the floor of our van. This awareness of the tradition of pre-rock songwriting is something we definitely value and respect: there would be no Lennon/McCartney without Dozier-Holland-Dozier. No Carole King without Leiber and Stoller. No Brian Wilson without Bacharach-David, without Sammy Cahn, without Rodgers and Hammerstein. No Laser Lazer Laser without ILM."

22 Great Intonation Moments

...

22. The staff finally met Dominique Leone. And she was totally hott.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 22 July 2005 15:40 (eighteen years ago) link

legs for miles and miles.

― mark p (Mark P), Friday, 22 July 2005 15:53 (eighteen years ago) link

and a beard that just won't quit

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 22 July 2005 16:19 (eighteen years ago) link

Dominique's "beard" = Rob Mitchum.

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 22 July 2005 16:48 (eighteen years ago) link

wait. that's confusing, nabisco. im more gender-confused than EVER!

― peter smith (plsmith), Friday, 22 July 2005 16:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, that doesn't even make sense!

Rob Mitchum does have a beard, though.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:05 (eighteen years ago) link

awesome thread.

― The Good Dr. Bill (The Good Dr. Bill), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:08 (eighteen years ago) link

Dominique's "beard" = Rob Mitchum.

Haha

― Roque S. (RoqueStrew), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:13 (eighteen years ago) link

ts: rob mitchum vs. katie holmes

― mark p (Mark P), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:15 (eighteen years ago) link

It makes perfect sense! Dominique is a "hot girl" who has a girlfriend, and therefore needs a manly bearded beard to make her seem less lesbionic.

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:32 (eighteen years ago) link

"her"

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:32 (eighteen years ago) link

who has a girlfriend

That's your own invention!

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:35 (eighteen years ago) link

Dominique is a lesbian?

― Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:36 (eighteen years ago) link

So you see, what Nitsuh said is true...from a certain point of view.

― Dominique (dleone), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:53 (eighteen years ago) link

I did not invent Dom's girlfriend! I supplied a few of the parts -- mostly bio-neural feedback transformers -- but I totally did not "invent" her.

― nabisco (nabisco), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Rob Mitchum is an attractive man. Very sturdy-looking.

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:00 (eighteen years ago) link

before i met him, i thought rob might've been jaymc.

― mark p (Mark P), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:03 (eighteen years ago) link

so i guess jay has a good self-image!

― mark p (Mark P), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:04 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm beardless now, Mark!

― jaymc (jaymc), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:24 (eighteen years ago) link

we gotta get dom's gf onto this thread!

― peter smith (plsmith), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:27 (eighteen years ago) link

her name is probably michael or something.
